Bright Family Headcanons now because I have family brainrot
I'm bored again and the last headcanon list did pretty good so here's more.
The family splits into 3 generations at the moment. With the Oldest/First Gen being Adam and Evelyn. 2nd Gen being the Bright siblings (Mikell to Sarah) and 3rd Gen being the siblings kids/descendants (David, Yoric and Sera). Tamlin is their own entity. The Main Bloodline is those who holds the Bright last name aka Ada and Evelyn's children.
The family farm isn't actually a farm. It's actually a ranch and they raise a few cows, goats, sheep and horses. When the Bright siblings were kids, they got money by renting out horses to people and selling animal products. Now that Mikell inherited the ranch, he has since expanded it by adding ostriches and alpacas.
Yoric likes bugs. I've said this before. But in addition to him liking bugs, he also keeps an ant farm, a few beetle enclosures and a scorpion in his apartment.
He also has a few taxidermy beetles and knows how to taxidermy bugs. Again, no one knows how/when he knows. He just whips it out one day surprising a few people.
Most of the Bright family members are multilingual and English tends to be their second/third language with a few exceptions.
Mikell owns at least two horses. One of them's a miniature pony and she's has the shortest temper ever.
TJ is very good with sewing, knitting and embroidery. He has sewn all his dresses before and knits regularly. He's trying to teach it to Sera and they bond over it.
Adam likes fishing. He once brought Mikell out to fish before and that is the ONE good day that Mikell ever had with his father. Ever.
Not counting Sarah- Evelyn is the tallest in the family. Followed by Mikell. Then David, Yoric, TJ, Jack & Claire, Adam, Sera.
Claire gave Mister Cupcake to David as a birthday gift for his 19th birthday shortly after he left Mikell. He was suffering from tremendous amounts of PTSD, depression and anxiety at the time along with his hard time adjusting to his blindness when Mister Cupcake was introduced to him and they immediately clicked. She's been with him for a long, long time.
Most of the family members have a very high spice tolerance and prefer spicy food with the exceptions to Mikell, Sera and Adam.
Mikell got the family's torah during his bat mitzvah. He passed it along to David's sister at her bar mitzvah and it got to Tamlin and then it's back from the start now because of Tamlin's time thing going on.
At least two family members have a photographic memory.
Jack and David are the family historians in which they record every single Bright family member in existence. The differences in their records is that Jack's only contains all legitimate and recognised children while David's includes all illegitimate children.
The Bright family has an annual family gathering together ever since Claire's death. It lasts for a week but not everyone stays that long. The family gathering is really big because family members outside of the main bloodline (Adam and Evelyn, Bright siblings and 3rd Gen) drop by too.
The entire family is queer to some degree.
The family actually has an immortality/longetivity curse. Either you get immortality, longetivity or if you're extremely lucky- none. The difference between immortality and longetivity is immortal means you can't die (e.g. Jack) and longetivity just means you live for a long, long time either due to an anomalous means or something else (e.g. Mikell able to live for a long time because of his access to SCP-006)
The Brights have been around for a long, LONG time. Immortals in the anomalous community have a chance to be biologically related to the Bright family to some degree.
Evelyn has a recipe book that she gave to Claire a while back- before she ran away from home. She left the book behind and Jack took it. That's when he discovered his love for cooking.
Mikell's the oldest with a 13 year difference between him and Jack. TJ and Claire are twins with TJ being the older one. They have roughly a 7 year difference with Jack. Sarah was born when Jack was 15.
